Re-Textured Easterling Unit

[Dea Paladin]

I gave the unit a nicer red colour instead of the brown, i also made his armour look abit dirtier. It is only a skin and to be able to use it you must replace the original texture. Hope you like I also added armour for the hands

EDIT:
Since some people didnt like how the colour was too red, i decided to make it abit darker(And i also fixed a few other stuff, but their hardly noticeable)

Red looks very good, but I still like brown. Perhaps make the red and brown variations?
Btw, why does the armor look blurry?

[Dea Paladin]

Well, its supposto be dust and dirt on the armour. I got the impression of the Easterlings´ cloth as red in the movies.

[Devils_Advocate]

Frankly said in my eyes it´s rather a step back than forward, the shiny armour was what gave them the finish touch.

[Hellenikon]

I think they´d look much better if you just changed the orange for a red, do it with a few different reds and see which one looks better.

I believe you should try to retexture other units. The easterlings are some of the best modeled and "textured" units of the game. I dont think they need to be polished.

Of all the units in TATW that could have used a face lift you pick what I considered the best looking in the entire mod.....

As to an actual critic. I think the red is a little over saturated.

That was indeed the first thing to come to mind when I read the thread title packed in a "What? why would you want to retexture Rhûn?"

Anyway I'll stick with the original

[JonSnow]

Um... is it just me or does it look a lot worse in the second pic..? It seems blurry and distorted... and the cape is better before IMHO

[Jaguar6]

The armor is supposed to look dirtier I think But I kind of agree, the armor should stay shiny, but the capes in my opinion should be red

[Dea Paladin]

Yes, it does look blurry, the red is to RED. I thought of retexturing eriador, but the team are gonna do that soon anyway

To be brutally honest, the Loke-Gamp Rim look much worse with your texture.

Now if you can do some touch-ups on Isengard\Mordor\Rohan to add detail or more variation, that would be appreciated by the community I'm sure.

[axnsan]

guys, the armor is blurry cos he doesn't have his texture quality set to high (at least that's what i think)
but i still like brown capes better

and it has nothing to do with the fact that you modelled them
but i got to agree with you, i don't see how the loke-rim could be improved

Why is everyone calling the cloth brown. Its a rusty red.... do you all have crappy monitors or something that doesn't have the colour depth that I do?

It comes up a dark brown for me...not very rusty red. But i still like it DG

What kind of monitor do you have our of curiosity?

On all the different monitors and colour settings I have viewed the units on not a single one of them is brown. Its always red. And the red in the first post is a highly saturated purplish red to me. What are you seeing?

And I see it rusty-brown, if that interests you.I have a HP L2208w.

[azrealxx]

A for effort but I also agree that if you are going to put some time into polishing a faction Rhun should not be it

[Dea Paladin]

Unfortunatly im a very bad modeller, i cant make new modells, which are probably what would be most required for some factions. Rhun's models&textures are great only that i think the cloth should be red, thats why i changed it.
If anyone has any ideas of anything i could change on other units then please post it.

[DisgruntledGoat]

I meant the new textures by Dea. What do they look like to you? Are you saying they are rusty red? Because that would be quite the departure form what I am seeing. And it would mean that your colour setup for your monitor is pretty messed up.
